Early October for whistling elk & wolves is great too.<BR/><BR/>Thanks, TSD--I share your likin' for lichens. What an amazing (and beautiful) complex of cooperating/competing species.<BR/><BR/>CD, YNP should hire you as poet laureate. Rustic cabin? Oh, you mean the fancy house (at least compared with most homes in Butte America ;-)EcoRoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07294159049375690786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28284097.post-54613522829921499622009-03-04T06:54:00.000-07:002009-03-04T06:54:00.000-07:00Yellowstone National Park in winter gleams with a ...Yellowstone National Park in winter gleams with a topaz beauty of blue sky and yellow patches of vegetation against the snow.

We've wolf watched in June. The scopers are always generous with the tourists. And then Steve trout fishes in July on the Yellowstone and sometimes in August on the Slough... Maybe someday we'll even bring the horses up there for a ride.Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06509431336916594990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28284097.post-34947861592617312352009-03-03T14:55:00.000-07:002009-03-03T14:55:00.000-07:00You can drive from Mammoth, through the Lamar, and...You can drive from Mammoth, through the Lamar, and out the "Northeast Entrance" to Cooke City.

Dumb question - can you drive up into the Lamar Valley in winter or is it a snow coach or snowmobile deal?troutbirderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087811292280881959noreply@blogger.com
